Joy Reid does it a lot on weekends. I finally stopped watching her. It got so ridiculous.

Nader and Stein supporters. They can all go jump in a lake. (And that's the nice way of saying what I'm actually thinking. But for obvious reasons I'll hold my tongue.)

2. So you don't think Pete and Amy dropped out because they fear Bernie?

That was his main point.

His other point was that if we vote for Joe out of fear, we lose. We need to motivate new voters.

11. Because they fear Bernie?

That's a rather odd assertion. They dropped out because they can't win and because they feel that Biden would be a better nominee. I guess we should take Michael Moore's word over theirs. I'd rather not.

Besides, "Because they fear Bernie" sounds like something Trump would say to mess with some Sanders supporters. He probably already has. He certainly has the "rigged" talking point down.

He’s a big blowhard (who always looks like he needs a shower with some Selsun Blue) who says outrageous things while breathing heavily and hungrily eyeing the craft services table. It’s a hoot!

That is what I think about that guy now which is sad.

I think Twitter culture is a bad habit for people who have poor impulse control. I don't do Twitter however I notice that people paint themselves in more and more radical corners with it. I can only imagine that the campaign of Bernie Sanders would have a much better reputation/public face if there was no Twitter. I think it is a desire for attention. They post some crazy stuff and then are invited on tv to reinforce their poor choices.
